The Thing with Margot Audible Audiobook – Unabridged

Timothy Best (Author), Kate Wisniewski (Narrator), Sheri Williams (Publisher)
4.9 out of 5 stars 12 ratings

Margot Laurent seems like the perfect girl next door. She likes romantic movies, baking, decorating, listens to chirpy love songs, and she never uses foul language because she thinks it’s unladylike. Yep, she’s many a man’s dream. Except she also happens to be a deadly assassin for a foreign government.

When a hit goes wrong in London, Margot is sent into hibernation in Tuscaloosa, Alabama. There she meets Bennett Chambers, a charming but unassuming history professor. Both he and Margot see something special in one other, and when the sparks start to fly, so do the bullets when the brother of Margot's latest victim comes seeking revenge. Get ready to laugh, cry, and go 'round the world on a heart-pounding adventure. The thing with Margot is - she's killer fun!

    Loved this book! Right from the explosive first chapter you like Margot, the action, and the quirky sense of humor Timothy Best interjects while his heroine is coolly deploying death. One also relates the conundrum that drives Margot through most of the story: she makes a difference with her job and is good at what she does, yet she also wants to nurture and create beauty- an itch her job can't scratch. The author keeps both plates spinning with plenty of character development, suspense and a truly sweet love story. More, please!

    This is truly a great read. I couldn't put it down. The characters are expertly developed and the humor comes through at the right moments to relieve the nail-biting suspense. Very clever, action-packed plot development. This one's a treasure. Mr. Best has "hit the bulls-eye". Can't wait for another one like this!

    I could not put this book down! The story and the characters draw you in and are so intriguing that you do not want to stop reading. The story is just the right mix of romance and mystery. I've read several of Mr. Best's books and Margot is one of his best. He certainly knows how to captivate an audience. Looking forward to more stories from this talented author.

    A fun, sexy read. It’s James Bond meets Racheal Ray. I teach at the University of Alabama and Timothy Best really nailed the town of Tuscaloosa and the campus settings for the book. But besides that, the characters and plot line keeps you turning the pages. I highly recommend this one.
